Minor moves for Tampa Bay Lightning

The Tampa Bay Lightning announced Saturday it had reassigned defensemen Matt Lashoff and Vladimir Mihalik, and forwards Mark Parrish and Paul Szczechura to AHL Norfolk. The moves will bolster the Admirals for their heated run at the playoffs. If Norfolk makes it, it will be the first time during its three years as a Lightning affiliate. It also means the Lightning expects to get some of its injured back in the game. Those players also could be recalled after upcoming crucial games for Norfolk.
